There is a YouTube channel called fireship, I love watching videos from this channel.

[Nirmit Pahwa]

ITS THE BEST CHANNEL OUT THERE FOR DEVELOPERS!

[Shahed Nasser]

Looks interesting, I love the idea of explaining something in 100 seconds

[Khokon M.]

yeah, those 100 seconds are worth watching.

I am reading some articles according to the themes on dev.to also medium.
At now trying to use https://app.daily.dev/ - but integration in browser is extremely annoying(i prefer regular blank new tab) and android application didn't even start

[Akshit Chaudhary]

I use it and Love it.

[Shahed Nasser]

I know that they have a web app though: app.daily.dev

[bigkrp]

I use it)

[Parker Waiters]

This website helps :)

[Shahed Nasser]

It does! Which articles do you find most helpful on here?

[MJCoder]

I'm signed up with quite a few newsletters, so that is a way for me to keep up to date. Theres also YouTube channels that I watch too. I learn from the videos and by building something or just tinkering with the code.

[Shahed Nasser]

Sounds nice, are there any you recommend?

[MJCoder]

Take a look at the following;

dev.to/theme_selection/top-15-news...

Mostly from Twitter, GitHub, and YouTube. All accounts I follow are personally curated. So I usually unfollow and even block/mute account that either uninteresting or irrelevant to me. Unfortunately, blogging platform like dev.to and medium don't give me good recommendation. Hashnode seems interesting and can give a good recommendation but for me the audience is not yet there. Better to use RSS feed when I found hidden gem.

[Ravavyr]

I built webnuz.com , i have it pulling articles from some 50+ source sites [RSS feeds], parses them into my own db.
It updates every 2 hours, some 250-350 articles per day.
I just scan headlines to see what's new and read the ones that stand out to me.

Note, this was a lot easier to keep up with when i first built it in 2011 and i only got like 20-30 articles a day lol

[Shahed Nasser]

That's a cool project!

[Rense Bakker]

Google does a fairly good job based on my interests. I get dev.to articles in my news timeline regularly 😜

[Shahed Nasser]

Nice, is it through Google discover? Or the Google app?

[Rense Bakker]

I believe it's the google app... It shows up in my news timeline on my android phone. From there if I see something interesting I bookmark it to my reading list.

[taijidude]

• Podcasts to hear about them
• Learning them and getting deeper: books and udemy tutorials

[Shahed Nasser]

That's nice! Are there any podcasts you recommend?
